WATERCOLOR WORLD FUN FOLDS

The  Stampin’ Up! Watercolor World stamp is so crazy cool. It’s striking all by itself. These look fabulous as a standard card, but these have a surprise when they are opened. They are fancy Z Fold cards. The copper metallic card version shows it plain, the blue card was embossed in black on Shimmer White paper. Then I used the Blending Brushes to add the color. Scroll down to see photos of it standing up and inside. 

I shared coloring techniques with the stamp and Stampin’ Write Markers yesterday. Check that out here.

The copper metallic card version shows it’s plain, the blue card was embossed on Shimmer White paper. Then I used the Blending Brushes to add the color. Scroll down to see photos of it standing up and inside. 

After I heat embossed in black, I colored in some spots with the Black Stampin’ Write Marker. I forgot to add that to the instructions. If you need some help using Blends Brushes check out this card and video.

The inspirational words on the inside are from the Stampin’ Up Stepping Stones stamp set. The beauty of the design is that it can be used for any occasion simply by changing the words. 

I went with the metallics for this version. I used the copper embossing from the Metallics Embossing Collection and Copper Foil paper. 

The directions and measurements for the fold flat Z Fold card are above in the instructions.  

Tomorrow I’ll be sharing the 3rd card in this photo. Like today’s card there is a surprise inside. Stay tuned to learn more.
